ACCIDENTALLY POSTED IN THE WRONG SECTION, HAVE ASKED FOR THE THREAD TO BE MOVED
Recently, I've been kinda obsessed with how Mourinho plays football, in specific, his time at Madrid. I've tried my best to replicate his system of football and was wondering what everyone else thinks and if I could perhaps make any improvements, mind you id rather only make the improvements if they are in accordance with how Mourinho played at Madrid. I haven't tested this a lot yet and it is just a concept, I've only played 1 game with the tactic with maximised familiarity and have been restarting it to get what I want. At the moment, the main problem I think is the consistency and maybe the roles of my left-winger and my striker. I have to choose between the Ram or IF on the left and CF or DLF up front( I'm pretty sure that's how both Ronaldo and Benzema played). Another issue is that we aren't really breaking on the counter at all, which is kinda weird. The PI I've given is for the striker, cam and right mid too close down more. If anyone remembers Benzema, Ozil and di maria used to pressure the team so that they could make a mistake and the ball could be recovered, rarely a system-wide pressure was used. The right mid is also told to mark the FB on his side so that he tracks back when out of possession for defending. The left-back is more attacking and the right-back plays defensively. You have a centre back who is comfortable on the ball and the other who plays a little safer. The keeper is standard sweeper Keeper.
